I don't know if it's the kind of day I'm having, but this is really turning on the waterworks. I'm a recovering Evangelical, and this is one of the main reasons I broke from the church. How can Christ's love so completely elude these "Christians?" Well, this one guy finally gets it.

Thank you for writing this, Erin. It took guts.

Jumping on the "fug no" bandwagon. Seriously, what is with sandals this summer? They are all some version of enormous disco wedge/espadrille/paper weight heel that you could bludgeon someone to death with.

This has me crying even harder than the funeral in the video. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Urgh, I feel for you. Oral BC totally killed my sex drive, too. I have mirena right now, which is very low-dose progesterone, and it's way better than the pill for sex drive (for me). I wasn't willing to go with the copper IUD because I already have long, painful periods, but that could be a hormone-free option for…

True. We're talking about men abusing women. Probably more often than not, the man is abusing the woman. Abusive husbands / boyfriends are a standalone problem and deserve to be addressed as such, as they are exploiting already unequal power dynamics (social, economic, physical). But I did choose to phrase it more…

Disgusting. And this photo is just the emblem of how it doesn't matter how talented, educated, accomplished, beautiful, etc. a woman might be, or a couple may appear to the outside world— humans can treat other humans horribly and you never know what's really going on in a marriage. Good for her for leaving, and I…

Tennessee = creamsicle orange.

Clean fingers for putting a tampon in are one thing... but what about having a bloody mess on your hands after insertion? If I'm doing this in a stall in my work bathroom, I can't very well stumble to the communal sink semi-nude before I pull my pants up.

Apparently we're all dicks?

Nothing looks more pathetic than a soaking wet cat. Poor baby.

Is it possible to want to motorboat someone in a non-sexual way? Because that is how I feel about this woman.

Women who cheat are more likely to do so with finality - that is, with no chance of reconciling. They have reached the point of no return with their partner, and the loss of attraction fuels emotions of disgust, contempt, resentment, and even hate for having lowered themselves by being with them at all.

QE1 is reported to have said that she bathed once each month, whether she needed to or not. Gross.

This is so sad. Have you seen the map overlaying the school closures on top of the homicide heat map? They're basically identical areas.

Yes! Same for "ALL THE [XYZ]!!!"???

This little piggy got drunk and fell asleep with its head hanging out of the car window.

I've been reading Jez for a number of years now, and there used to be a much stricter policy (whether enforced by mods or just accepted by commenters) forbidding numbers relating to weight, dress size or body measurements. I'm not sure if it was specifically to prevent triggering readers with ED issues, or to foster…

This Romy & Michelle gif is the highlight of my day.

Could feminazi immune systems also be responsible for the higher incidence of autoimmune disorders in women?
